An improving dynamic programming algorithm to solve the shortest path problem with time windows

چکیده
An efficient use of dynamic programming requires a substantial reduction of the number of labels. We propose in this paper an efficient way of reducing the number of labels saved and dominance computing time. Our approach is validated by experiments on shortest path problem with time windows instances.

A Goal Programming Model for Single Vehicle Routing Problem with Multiple Routes
The single vehicle routing problem with multiple routes is a variant of the vehicle routing problem where the vehicle can be dispatched to several routes during its workday to serve a number of customers. In this paper we propose a goal programming model for multi-objective single vehicle routing problem with time windows and multiple routes. To solve the model, we present a heuristic method wh...
متن کاملTwo optimal algorithms for finding bi-directional shortest path design problem in a block layout
In this paper, Shortest Path Design Problem (SPDP) in which the path is incident to all cells is considered. The bi-directional path is one of the known types of configuration of networks for Automated Guided Vehi-cles (AGV).To solve this problem, two algorithms are developed. For each algorithm an Integer Linear Pro-gramming (ILP) is determined. The objective functions of both algorithms are t...
متن کاملA dynamic programming algorithm for the shortest path problem with time windows and linear node costs
This paper presents an optimal dynamic programming algorithm, the first such algorithm in the literature to solve the shortest path problem with time windows and additional linear costs on the node service start times. To optimally solve this problem, we propose a new dynamic programming algorithm which takes into account the linear node costs. This problem has numerous applications: Two exampl...
متن کاملA goal programming model for vehicle routing problem with backhauls and soft time windows
The vehicle routing problem with backhauls (VRPB) as an extension of the classical vehicle routing prob-lem (VRP) attempts to define a set of routes which services both linehaul customers whom product are to be delivered and backhaul customers whom goods need to be collected. A primary objective for the problem usually is minimizing the total distribution cost. Most real-life problems have othe...
متن کاملDynamic Multi Period Production Planning Problem with Semi Markovian Variable Cost (TECHNICAL NOTE)
This paper develops a method for solving the single product multi-period production-planning problem, in which the production and the inventory costs of each period arc concave and backlogging is not permitted. It is also assumed that the unit variable cost of the production evolves according to a continuous time Markov process. We prove that this production-planning problem can be Stated as a ...
